Air India and Riyadh Air have signed a new codeshare agreement aimed at strengthening air connectivity between India and Saudi Arabia. The partnership is expected to offer passengers greater travel flexibility through seamless bookings and improved access to destinations across both airlines’ networks.
Under the agreement, Air India and Riyadh Air will place their respective flight codes on selected services, allowing travelers to book connecting journeys on a single ticket. The arrangement will provide smoother transfers and better schedule coordination, enhancing the overall travel experience for passengers flying between the two countries.
The collaboration will expand travel options from major Indian cities to destinations served by Riyadh Air while also increasing connectivity for Saudi travelers heading to India. The move comes amid growing demand for business, tourism, and religious travel between India and Saudi Arabia.
The new partnership reflects both airlines’ ambitions to strengthen their international presence through strategic alliances rather than launching additional routes. It also supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 aviation goals while helping Air India continue expanding its global network and partnerships across the Middle East region.
